Top Seacoast Science Center Hotel Reviews

Residence Inn by Marriott Portsmouth Downtown/ Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were extra large and comfortable, staff members were great!! Will return again!"

Hampton Inn & Suites Portsmouth Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and comfortable! . No free parking. Had to pay hotel in NH $50 a night to park."

Rye Motor Inn - Oceanfront, Walk to Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay we enjoyed the place immensely"

Treadwell Mansion

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot! They have a coffee maker and drinks in the lobby which is super nice! You don’t see that a lot! Beautiful place and great size rooms."

Hilton Garden Inn Portsmouth Downtown

8/10 Good

"A woman named Terri that worked at the bar, helped greatly and also helped two other consumers"

The Bow Hotel

8/10 Good

"Location was great — very walkable to everything in town. The room was small but functional, and nicely renovated. The wifi was spotty. Note that you’ll have to pay $35 for parking or find street parking (for a single night, street parking across the street is cheaper)."

Great Island Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This property was absolutely beautiful, the room was incredibly clean, and everything was perfect. The whole experience was relaxing and the prefect setup for a work trip. I loved staying here and will 100% do it again. The coffee shop/restaurant that is in the same building is delightful. I had to extend my stay for a night and since the room wasn't booked all it took was a simple email. Can't recommend this place enough!!!"

Rye Beach 1-Bedroom Condo | Private Beach Access & Walk to Petey’s Seafood

10/10 Excellent

"This was our second stay at this location, which speaks volumes about our experience. I hope to secure the same weekend next year. The host is very responsible and easy to communicate with. The location is the best in the area! Petey's is right across the street, offering fantastic seafood and delicious ice cream. A little farther down the street is Rays, which also serves great seafood. It’s close to Rye Harbor, where you can book a whale-watching tour or a trip to Star Island. If you go a bit further, you'll reach Hampton Beach. And to top it all off, it's less than a one-minute walk to Wallis Beach!"

Cozy 2 bedroom retreat on quiet Ledgewood Dr! Minutes to Downtown Portsmouth!

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was just as listed. Great apartment to stay in and very convenient to all of Portsmouth. Thank you to our host!"
